streams of burning lava, while in
between, the flashes from the mus
kets of the skirmishers glowed
like giant fire flies" But before
daylight the enemy had silently
stolen away. In the afterpart of
the day while these thrilling
events were in progress on the
mountain, Gen. Sherman began
the attack upon Bragg's rig ght.
The first and second lines were
driven back and their positions
held by the Union troops, but
Tunnel Hill the objective point
was not attempted that night, but
,he next day early Sherman began
the attack. 1t was repelled with
such spirit and bravery that he
was compelled to fall back. Again
and again he moved to the attack
and as many times was unsuccess.
full. Gen. Grant was determined
that Sherman should turn Bragg's
right. Hooker had come down
from Lookout and taken Rossville
during the day. Grant, late in the
afternoon in order to aid Sh erman
ordered general attack all along
the center, but only to be extend
ed far enough to take the first and
second lines of rifle pits, then they
were to halt until Sherman had
taken Tunnel Hill and turned
Bragg's right; Thorn as troops
who composed the center sprang
gallantly to the attack; the skir-
mishers driven in the line of rifle
pits were taken, and here they
were to stop. But after hating
for few moments, long enough
to breathe, without command of
officer, by one grand and simulta-
neous impulse these brave fellows
followed up their advantage.
charging upon the enemy, driving
him step by step up the face of
Missionary Ridge until they had
driven him from the field. As
Gen Grant saw these brave fell
lows pushing on up the face of che
hill above where he had ordered a
halt, he became very angry and
did some tall swearing, but the
deed was done and the victory won
and that by men acting upon their
own impulse and without a COM
manding officer. The victory was
as brilliant as it was novel. Bragg
seeing this determined attack
withdrew large numbers of men
from his right to repel it, thus en-
abling Sherman to capture this
rebel strong hold and in little
while the whole Of Braggs'' army
were i'll rapid flight, and Chatta-
nooga was no longer threatened.
Many evidences of these battles
still exist, both of the mountain
and Missionary Ridge, beside the
twelve thousand union soldies who
lie buried here. CECIL.

of the town, wherever this work
has been done, will alone pay for
the money expended. Every citi-
zen should have enough pride to
cheerfully pay the poll-tax assess
ed for this purpose. But while
the improvement is going on, we
would like to suggest that the
middle of the street is not the
place for weeds, large loose stones,
tin cans and other rubbish. The
weeds prevent the road bed be-
coming solid, while the stones and
tin cans, are dangerous to horses
and vehicles and annoying to
drivers. In few days they begin
to work off the road into the gut
ters, checking the flow of water
and thus cause rapid accumula-
ton of filth that would otherwise
be carried away. Cart the garbage
and rubbish out of town.
When statement is pub
llshed In a newspaper it ceases to
be idle rumor, street talk or
neighborhood gossip, and is ac-
cepted by the publie il 5he paper
has any standing, NJ something
worthy of consideration. Hence
a paper can not be too careful of
its assertions, and should never
make q statement, insinuatiom or
even administer g. general reI,roof
unless there is a ST fficient, unques-
tionable evidence to base the
statement on fact. Whenever this
care is not kept constantly in
view, assertions are made that may
prove exciting for moment, but
they invariably react with
terrible and disastrous effect upon
the author. Not only do they re-
act disastrousIy upon the author,
but they fail to accomplish any
good whatever, if good were in
tended. One of our exchanges
last week, not only violated every
rule which should govern high
toned journalism, by publishing
statement that is, we think, wholly
wanting in proof, but also became
liable to punishment by law for
trying to injure an individual.
The fact that the matter was
placed in a column of reading
which it is claimed is paid for by
an advertiser should not screen
the paper from the condemnation
and punishment it merits.

DIED.

Mr.. T. o. Wellborn died a his
home near Sperry, Monday June
18th, of dropsy. He was born in
Tennessee, Jan. I'd, 1910, and came
with his parents to Missouri in
lS47. He married Mary Ann
Stewart, Feb. 14th, 1861, and six
sons, five of whom survive him,
are the result of this happy union.
Our hearts ache when our loved
ones are called hence, but it is
often a sweet drop in our bitter
cup to be permitted to attend to
the last earthly request, and to
hold the dear one in a last en-
brace, but this sad privilege was
denied the eldest son, who is liv-
ing in Finney county, Kansas.
The deceased has been declining
In health for some time; but with
heroic fortitude he struggled
against disease, e7er anxious to
allay the fears of his family and
friends. During the past few
months he had failed visibly and
rapidly, and for some time had felt
that he must die, but with that
solicitude which characterized his
whole life, he forbade them sum-
monlng his absent SON until it was
too late. He frequently said dur
ing the last weeks of his life, 81
am detained on the roadr 1t was
the accomplishing cry of a mind
and heart wearied with its pilgrim
age to that country where
sickness and sorrow pain and death
Are felt and feared no more"
He gave his sons careful advice
In regard to their business affairs,
and like one of old gave directions
concerning his burial; on Sunday
before his death he said II am
willing and prepared to GO" Just
past the prime of life, held in
highest esteem by his neighbors
and all who knew him we'll, his
loss is deeply felt by the entire
community. In the presence of
the grief stricken wife and child
ren, what can human voice or pen
say or write that will shed the
comforting balm on their wounded
hearts. But while all earthly con-
ISOLATION fails, he who hearoth the
ravens when they cry, bends his
b head in pity to the cry of their
hearts and whispers that sweet
promise, BLESSED are they that
mourn, for they shall be comfort
ed. To their heavenly father
alone can they look for comfort, |
ever remembering that
lis only moment God chastens w ith pain,
Joy follows on sorrow like sunshine on rain, |
Then bear thou what time ON thy spirit shall |
lay,
BE dumb, and when tempted to murmur, then |
pray
The funeral services were con-
iucted at the residence by Rev. J.
). Williams, and a large number of
'ympathizing friends accompani-
I'd the bereaved family to Fort
Madison cemetery where they laid
% rest all that was mortal of the
departed husband and father.
